that 5 hour energy stuff has the caffeine equivalent of one cup of coffee and no sugar. The "energy drinks" like red bull, monster and rock star all have 10-15 times as much caffeine, loads of sugar and guarana (not good for people w/ heart conditions) - I'm not supposed to have caffeine (at least not much) because of an abnormal heart rhythm - and it doesn't seem to affect my heart rate or cause irregularities (at least ones that weren't there before).
when i used to work for the doctor who i now see - i was getting b-12 injections every two weeks, but i never really noticed a difference. . .and this was BEFORE any of my pill problems ever started. . .
I have hilled on the caffeine as well...just dont really crave it like i used to...back when i quit tho i used an energy drink to get out the door each morn...rocket shot or the 5 hour drink
Follow Up.
I can't drink the energy drink with the energy complex in my multis. Too much of a reaction.

Hi Meg!
I stopped taking the Cal/Mag. I was taking it for a short time to help w/sleep and RLS. I think I took it for 3 nights and didn't need it any more. Now I put my head down and don't remember falling asleep.
One other thing I might recommend, get the multi w/an all natural energy complex.
The B12 I take as a tab.
Have you ever tried taking the B12 all by itself to see what the effects were?

I am also taking all of that but have cut back now on B12 injections...and i take the aminos separately as there was not enough tyrosine, glutamine, methionone and DLPA in the mixes i found....my energy really started coming back full force when i started wellbutrin for nicotine cessation...i dont smoke but hooked on the mints LOL it helps my narc cravings too i think...thanx for sharing
I take a concoction of vitamins also except i swallow the b-12 one. I have read that the injections work better but i am a chicken!!!!! Glad this is working for you as i swear by the vitamins also!!!! Keep it up!!! sara
